- Treasures of New York goes on a private tour inside Hearst's world headquarters to explore New York City's first completed "green" office building, a recent iconic addition to New York City's famous skyline.
These videos are gold nuggets. The editing and topic choices could not be any better. Keep on digging and churning.
Isn't this just a 26 minute ad for Hearst?
That’s Hideous!! If they put a huge jester’s head on top it would make a nice jack-in-the-box. They should have continued skyward with the elegant and classy original Art Deco style.
This was my first job when I finally got into the union. I did about 23 floors of work there. Beautiful building and has great views too.
New kitsch atop old kitsch.
I hate when they butcher the inside of historic buildings. Feels like a corpse
What's the point in giving a building landmark status if you are just going to turn around and let a glass monstrocity be put on top of it?
What happened to the interior furnishings and surface coverings of the original building? How can you replace stone and marble with glass and steel and say you've preserved a landmark?
He said that the office space of the original building was outdated with low ceilings etc...
sorry i think it looks like shit
Read my reply agreed.
looks like something from the 1970s
Wow. Watching this 11 years after it's first posting here, I am in awe. I had seen this building often but never knew what it was and never realized it was built 'on top/inside' the original structure. Interesting on the board meeting and coincidental timing with 9/11. I would imagine this structural architecture would also perform well in an seismic event. Heartwarming to see Good Housekeeping takes their pristine reputation seriously! Enjoyed the vid, even 11 years later! Thanks! 👍
hello Daddy and Mommy
Millstein Family and
Daughters. Whatever. ❤❤
happen you know ❤+❤+
Its two parts of other wholes somewhere. This isnt it.
Looks like it would fit better in Malaysia where anything goes so long as its glass or one of its newer incarnations.
So pleased comfort and style were once again sacrificed to "green" misdirection.
aka The Kane Tower
I worked for good housekeeping in the late fifties. The Art Deco look should have been adequate but it is very ugly now with a glass top.
the pocketbook had 2 be deep to pay for that baby!
I love you so. I miss you so
wally. Ph
To GOD be the glory

The old building had a presence, and history to it(be it good, or bad). I feel like they scooped the guts out of it to build an ephemeral cod piece.
Amazing how they can call this a treasure? Yeah the original building was a treasure. To me a 3 year old could have designed this tower, it looks like someone used crayons and construction paper. How butt ugly, from that architectural masterpiece to a criss cross Edward Scissorhands design. Who in their right mind would say this is beautiful? It looks like someone vomited on the interior of that art deco masterpiece. I have never seen this building before it was destroyed, have not been back to NYC since 1971 never saw the WTC completed. Sad they demolish all these grand Dames, Made me sick to see the Biltmore Hotel in Bellview Florida destroyed. Did the same thing kept the lobby and demolished the rest of that Magnificent structure!!!
Just saw it on Modern Marvels you are so right.
@@tedarias9040 lmao the original building have 6 floors and its basically a box with decoration on it, nothing special, but the Hearst tower is and will always be a national treasure, just because you dont see the beauty doesnt means that others will have follow your opinion, cry about it lol.
And i assumed you dont even study architecture, you are trying to be edgy saying that a 3 years old can design that building, what a clown
One of the worst narrations by "professional? iv'e ever heard.
+wiedep I had to grit my teeth all the way through.
Can anyone tell me where I can find the original tower design that was never done? I couldn't find it.
Another butt ugly monstrosity from Foster & Partners. They do love a bit of 'Ugly Modernism'. Looks like they added a rich man's greenhouse on top of the original. Even uglier than 'The Gherkin' in London.
Too much hyperbole. Bring it down. Try to regain some reputation for public media.
The base is uninspired and the tower is simply well, sort of Like skyline banal...given the not inconsiderable size of Hearst, you'd think they could comisión something of aesthetic worth....
The Hearst Tower is an incredible structure. It is a modern day treasure of New York.
Flimsy structureq
it's nice to hear someone talk about a woman's magazine without being lectured and yelled at by some Woke Warrior picking every goddamned word apart in cane it "triggers" some poor soul in need of a "safe space " where everyone is "inclusive"
fuugg!
Looks like the Bank of China building.
Great story! I love the Hearst Building! Real cool building for the twenty-first century!
Vile..
Very interesting!
Patty Hearst lived across the street from me in Garrison, NY. I believe she's still there.
This building is spectacular and is an ideal representation of the spirit of this company.
can we still say "woman" ? i don't wanna get cancelled. is there a pamphlet? screw the woke
